Frank Esler and T. Lysinger have been
permitted by the city council of Helena
to put in an electric light plant at that
place. 1t will be the same as the one
used in Bozeman, which has given such
general satisfaction, and, in view of the
very unsatisfactory service given by the
old Helena company. it is believed that
Messrs. Esler & Lysineer will do a good
business, notwithstanding the fact that
the old company proposes to put in in
candescent lights also.

A NIfser's Sharn Practice.

In the room of a miser physician, who died
in New York city few days ago, were found
hundreds of empty bottles and packages,
which showed that for many months he had
lived on the various nutritious articles widely
advertised in the medical journals. This had
cost him nothing, for he had taken advan-
tage of the sharp rivalry in wares of this
kind and had written to the proprietors for
samples, implying that he might require a
large quantity if the trial proved successful.
His name appearing in the list of regular
practitioners, his requests were freely granted
and he obtained all sorts of cereal foods,
wines, malt preparations, koumiss and tonics.
His peculiar diet may have killed him. for he
died of gastric disease Chicago Times

shis feeling, as every sufferer can easily
obtain satisfactory proof, that Green's

Watered silk is shown in some new pat
terms, or, more correctly speaking, very
old styles revived-styles that were old
in the days when the most ancient of our
living votaries of fashion were in their
early youth. There are moires with
brocaded figures in them and with wan
dering lines or stripes that look like a
stray rill trucking over the smooth sur.
face of the fabric. A few of the conven-
tional watered silks with which we are
familiar, are always in demand, and in

accident, caused by runaway horse. 1

the wounds, which turned to running
sores, but found nothing to do me any
good till 1 was recommended Henry's

Spring NANTES are short and scarf
like; contrasting material covers the arm
from shoulders to the elbows, and long,
narrow fronts end in rosettes or bows of
ribbon, or in tassels of jet. Passemen-
terie mantles are novel, and there are lace
aud grenadine and silk mantles that are
covered with jet ornaments. Some fringes
extend from the shoulder to the end of
the mantle, covering it entirely, and there
are also fringes thirty-seven inches deep,
made of separate jet strands, that cover
the long fronts of the mantle.
